PlayStation Network
Sony gaming service
PlayStation Network is Sony's online service for PlayStation gaming consoles, providing multiplayer gaming, digital game purchases, streaming entertainment, and cloud storage for game saves.
Users create accounts to access the PlayStation Store, connect with friends, and download games and other content.
The service has both free and paid tiers, with PlayStation Plus offering additional benefits like monthly free games and exclusive discounts.
